    Summary: 1st-level bootloader used in FreeBSD distribution
    Description: 
    The boot manager scans the partition table and prints the menu on the
    screen so the user can select what disk and what slice to boot. By
    pressing an appropriate key, boot0 performs the following actions:
        * modifies the bootable flag for the selected partition to make it
          bootable, and clears the previous
        * saves itself to disk to remember what partition (slice) has been
          selected so to use it as the default on the next boot
        * loads the first sector of the selected partition (slice) into
          memory and jumps there
